Rule under the East India Company
East India Company used a local network of ruling authorities (Zamindars) to collect taxes.
Zamindars could keep 11% of the tax for themselves, but if they failed to pay the tax, their lands would be seized.

The Trouble with Taxes
Zamindars wanted to get rich from taxes.
The easiest way to do this was to force tenants to grow cash crops instead of food.

Trouble
Cartridges for the rifles soldiers used were covered with fat, and soldiers had to bite into them to release the gunpowder.

Rumors had been circulating in India for decades that the British were going to force all Indians to convert to Christianity.
The greased cartridges seemed to confirm this fear.
